Search engines

Now you can use the keyword in the URI prompt to search directly on the corresponding website.

The first entry in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/dwb/searchengines will be the default search engine.

Note: If you are always searching for undefined even with the searchengine-submit-pattern option set, then you should edit $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/dwb/searchengines and adapt the URIs to match your searchengine-submit-pattern.
